I had already been through the Sark train-derailment at UW. I thought Seven win Steve was funny and apt. I'm sure week 5 of this season he'll be on the hot seat again.
There was a strong contingent who thought Augie should have been gone after his DUI. *I* wanted Augie fired before 1998 (and I was 100% wrong about that)
There has been stupid online since they wired up all the trailer parks to the Internet...
I think next visit we are going to slice up the gulf side (clearwater, naples, etc) to or fro from baseball to Key West.
I must have been very lucky, I saw very little "florida man" behavior in the 7 days I was there.
Are you dorks really going to argue and ruin the best time of the year? It's regional time and Texas is playing! You can have the entire off-season to be lemonheads.
Florida is much nicer than the Internet would have you believe. Full disclosure it does not rain as much in Seattle as the Internet would suggest either...
The GF will do SEC baseball trips for more Florida trips.
Pass on that. I would hire the Tennessee skipper as raw as he may be personality-wise over the TCU -> Aggie coach. Who has been nothing but a cretin since his wife caught him cheating on her and tossed him out of his house across from Lufton Stadium. He went out of his way at TCU during the Pierce hiring saga to re-ink a new deal with TCU. He can shove that purple pen up has ass.
Google maps puts it at 6 hours and 39 minutes going straight Florida Turnpike to Key West to Orlando. We left midday Thursday and stopped for a long afternoon dinner and then every beach on the way from Ft Lauderdale and we were able to do laundry before bed at the hotel in Cocoa Beach that night. Yay west coast internal time clocks.
I will note that I like driving, and rented my next car purchase from Sixt rather than a econobox. We also booked it to St Augustine and back to Orlando for a Whataburger run after the game Sunday.
My favorite thing was Long Beach tried to sell a new ticket for the final game. It was an all regional pass. Arguing with a student and asking to speak to someone who actually graduated from college was not my finest hour...
I really want Stanford to win the PAC12 autobid. Squeeze the at larges I say. The conference tourneys are dumb and should be absorbed into the postseason properly.
He's frustrating to me because multiple times in his tenure we've lost a key piece due to injury with seemingly no reserve which derails our season. McCann at catcher (2019) was the most frustrating to me. I don' know how he is going to compete in the SEC which can only get harder. Unless we are not scheduling the right mid-week scrubs pre-conference.
Having said that, I like the man and think he is fine as our coach. Other than replacing him with a coach who has actually won a national championship or three, the next coach at Texas will not have his record. Or to put another way, if David Pierce were coaching at Alabama with his Texas record you'd all be screaming for him to be here.
This gets incredibly tiresome to read.
